I’ve seen this online and decided to give it a whirl. On the SmokeFire, at 250. Put on at 11:00am. Around 2:00pm I wrapped in foil with a few pads of butter on top. Removed around 4:30. Temp was around 203 in the meat. Let it rest for about an hour. Everyone liked it. It’s a leaner cut the brisket, but it turned out tender and much like brisket does.

Holy crap yours came out way better than mine did.
I’m going to do this again soon and wrap with butter.
Nice looking cook!
 
What’s Your verdict ? This way or the hot fast med rare way?

Probably a time and place for each, but tri tip is quite a bit pricier than brisket in my area.

What say you? TIA.
 
My verdict is, I much more prefer TriTip done medium rare/ medium. But if I’m in the mood for a brisket this was 7.5 hours, about half the time of a brisket, so it will come into play.

I had the same thought when I tried this. Yours just looks killer!! Maybe I’ll just get a brisket!
 
That 3rd pick just might make you the 2nd 3 x smoke of the month winner. Don’t crowd your entry with the multi pics, send the money shot!!
